hi everybody, I'm wondering if any of you know how to fix a local area connection? whenever i use my internet the status of the local area connection have the status of limited of no connectivity. Thanks a lot for any help you can provide.
start>my computer>network connections>right click local area connection>properties>right click TCP/IP>properties> Is it set to automatically assign IP address or use this address(Manually enter IP range, gateway, subnet) Try reseting your modem. Are you on a network of any kind or at home?
it is set to automatically assign IP address. and i'm at home; however, my local area connection properties show me as connecting using Intel(R) PRO/100 VE Network Connection . i shut my modem on and off and uses it again, but not to sure if that would reset this. Thanks for the help so far.
Question: did it ever work??? If so TIP: If your Cable or DSL service suddenly have connection problems, slow or failed loading of some webpages, or low upstream/downstream speeds. THEN completely turn off the computer that is connected to your cable modem. Pull out the plug to the cable modem power cord so that no electrical power goes to it. Wait 10 - 15 minutes. Plug the power cord back in. Allow the cable modem 2 - 3 minutes to reset. Turn the computer back on. In most cases, this will restore your cable connection back to normal. If that doesnt work try this: Go to control panel> internet options> select the 'connections' tab>select 'never dial a connection'>select 'LAN settings'>uncheck all. Also control panel> network settings> Local are connection "enable" Make sure you don't have a red X there cause it will never work. Reboot...If that don't work call your ISP.
